Vincent Price roasts Bette Davis (LEGENDADO)

Neste lendário "The Dean Martin Roasts" de 1973, Bette Davis é fritada por seu amigo Vincent Price. Haviam trabalhado juntos em "Meu Reino por um Amor", de 1939, quando Bette já era uma estrela e Vincent ainda galgava os degraus da fama, e voltariam a se encontrar somente em 1987, no último filme de Bette, "As Baleias de Agosto".
Price, mais conhecido por seus magníficos filmes de terror, dá um show de humor! Em sua resposta Bette devolve as piadas de Vincent e acaba sobrando para Howard Cosell.
Saudade de todos eles!

[@kali3665]

@Necroglobule Supposedly, right after Crawford died, Bette Davis went to a party where she saw Burt Reynolds. She went over, and told him, "Well, the bytch died today!" Burt then introduced the reporter he was talking to. Without losing a beat, Bette said, "But she was ALWAYS on time!"

Vincent Price is irreplaceable. Multi-talented. The 10 Commandments, Dr. Phibes, Edgar Allen Poe stories, Edward Scissorhands, Michael Jackson's Thriller, and a Sindbad movie show his versatility.

[@larryeisenberg1895]

I have his cookbook - took me 10 years of scouring used bookstores to find one! Also, met someone who, as a child, had Vincent come and stay at her house, as her dad and Vincent were friends. She asked Vincent "why do you make those terrible low budget horror movies?". He told her, "They are what pay for my true passions - travel, art collecting and food!".

Noting happened. This was an era where only the best of the best got noticed outside their home town. The entertainment industry (and indeed, basically everything you saw in media at all) was absolutely minuscule by comparison to today, if you *weren't* incredible, you simply wouldn't be known more than an hour from where you lived, and certainly wouldn't be remembered. The media infrastructure just didn't exist then that does today. The Internet simply showed that most Americans (like literally any group of people) are incredibly average, and will happily watch other people being equally average.
